Right, so, the 'first CDs' thread got me thinking. A lot of bands that, to me, are new-ish are actually now quite old. I read an article about Bloc Party saying they're part of the 'old guard' of indie now. While, in my cultural memory, they're still pretty new. And only on their 2nd album. This isn't a 'young people's culture isn't like in my day' because, to be honest, it's not that different. I just have better things to worry about than the latest hairstyle of my favourite lead singer.
BUT.
It is quite disturbing how some of the posters round here make me feel like 'youth culture' is a distant world from me when, in fact, I'm only 25.
So I suppose this thread is an appeal to the genuinely old posters (I'm looking in your direction, Messrs L and 'racist' Marras) as to how one deals with this without becoming a belligerent old twat whinging about how young people don't understand things properly (I'm sure I don't have to name names there).
